The Implementation of the National Professional Wage Floor in Minas Gerais: between what was said, done and written

Abstract

This article addresses the implementation process of the National Professional Wage Floor in the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil through two movements. The first one was to extinguish the rights of workers of the state network of Minas Gerais, and the second, the extension of these rights, in the normative scope, but with limited fiscal and political resources. The text uses the evidences of the legislative process and the organization of the workers, by means of the trade union activity, to address the ongoing dispute that leads to the implementation of the national floor professional wage in Minas Gerais.
